‘Buy salt, melt ICE’: Minnesota protesters buy and return salt in Target stores to slow lines — watch

A video erupted on social media showing Minnesota protesters lined up to buy salt and then return it over and over again in Target. Participants repeatedly lined up to purchase salt, return it and repeat the process as a way to hold up lines, representing a desire “to melt ICE”, the SURJ-TC (Showing Up for Racial Justice Twin Cities) wrote online. The organisation planned to repeat this tactic at five Twin Cities Target stores until the company spoke out against ICE. On the same day, nearly 100 leaders and supporters of SURJ-TC and Unidos gathered at the downtown Minneapolis Target for a sit-in.
